Group puts safety first

Women’s SPACE, a non-profit organisation dedicated to raising the awareness of self protection and personal safety of women has been set up in Edinburgh.

The group, which meets twice a month, offers members the opportunity to explore the physical aspects of personal safety through self defence training and discuss safety issues with other members.

The aim of the organisation is to enable women to explore their potential in a secure social environment, and for members to be able to defend themselves.

The next meeting is at the City Cafe, October 1 at 7pm.
